Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The move from videotapes to DVDs was the first change that radically altered the video market. DVDs offered superior picture and sound quality, longer lifespan, and smaller physical size compared to videotapes, making them a popular choice among consumers.

Note: While the Telecommunications Act of 1996 did have an impact on the video market by deregulating certain aspects of the industry, it was not a direct cause of radical market changes. The move from DVDs to streaming and the invention of HD technology were also significant changes but happened after the first change already took place.
